Rising from the ashes of stoner/doom legends Obsessed during the small genre's most fertile post-Kyuss period, Goatsnake helped define southern California's low-and-slow metal scene during the late nineties. With releases on Hydrahead Records, Frank Kozik's famed Man's Ruin, and finally settlingly with the mighty Southern Lord Records (co-owned by guitarist Greg Anderson), Goatsnake could be considered one of the quintessential stoner/doom bands of their time. Flower of Disease was originally released on vinyl by Southern Lord in 2000 but has been out of print for quite a while.
